THIS IS NOT MY CAR, the dealer I placed my order with just got this is in today (it was ordered by another customer)... Thought I would take some pics for everyone. Even though I have an order I am extremely disappointed in the car overall, especially the interior (no disrepect to any owners here). Between the depreciation and seeing the car today I am thinking of canceling my order and buying something else. Now I ask the question if I was to cancel the order, and had 300k max I want to spend, any serious suggestions??? Thanks in advance.
The car looks insane in white. Some nice tint on those windows and you are rocking.

So exactly what was so horrible? You can always buy the carbon door panels and the race seats from Germany if you want them. The body is just low, wide and the sickest MB I have ever seen.

In all sincerity, I'd cancel and buy a 599 GTB with 4,000 miles and pocket a fistful of $$$'s.
Here's a response post that I made on another board yesterday after seeing the SL Black at Park Place:
I touched one today, it made me feel .... nothing.
Sorry, but for $304k it just didn't knock me out. It's definitely better looking than McLaren MB. Nice cf trim on the chin spoiler and rear end but the pistons on the retractable rear spoiler are painted black ... I think the chromed pistons on the 911TT look better.
The wheels are really nice, not sure what they weigh but they must be lighter than my CLK Black.
The seats look like someone studied at Ferrari and came up with an MB version.
Nice cf inside too but not a radical enough departure from the normal SL interior.
I bet it sound fantastic and looks great on the move but I'm not feelin' it.(That's okay though, I'm not a potential buyer, so MB shouldn't care.)
